Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity.
He who seeks ecstasy in love should not complain of suffering.
Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.
Love descends upon our souls by the will of God and not by the demand or the plea of the individual.
You shall be free indeed when your days are not without a care, nor your nights without a want and a grief, but rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them naked and unbound.
Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
